Chapter 1154: Chapter 1154: Strange Fate

"If I can’t kill you, I’ll confine you for a lifetime." Lin Xi’s phoenix eyes held a threatening aura, her fighting spirit high, hands continuously forming seals, making her invulnerable in her spell-casting state.

Lord Xiong felt a sense of oppression, something was off. He wanted to move, but realized his body was bound by a powerful supernatural force, rendering him immobile.

"How can this be?" Lord Xiong couldn’t believe it. He felt as if his body was uncomfortably bound by iron chains, and even using all his strength, he couldn’t break free, instantly panicking.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked; Lin Xi was serious about confining Lord Xiong.

Xue Wang watched from the side, then couldn’t help but laugh, "How about it, Lord Xiong, need some help?"

"No need, I can handle it myself." Unwilling to lose face, Lord Xiong roared, and slowly raised his arms, as if trying to break free from the chains.

Lin Xi aimed her hands at Lord Xiong, twisting her wrists continuously, gritting her teeth to persevere, forcibly pushing her supernatural power to continue confining Lord Xiong.

A bolt of lightning heeded Lin Xi’s call, striking Lord Xiong with the force of thunder, followed by another bolt of lightning.

Boom, boom, boom. Under Lin Xi’s utmost effort, multiple bolts of lightning struck together, each bolt ten times more powerful than the last. Even Lord Xiong couldn’t withstand it, and he spat blood.

However, on one hand restraining Lord Xiong and on the other summoning lightning to strike him, Lin Xi’s supernatural power was depleting severely, and she was somewhat out of breath.

Su Hui saw how hard Lin Xi was struggling and wanted to help, but was stopped by Gu Fan, "Sister Su, this is Lin Xi’s fight, let her handle it herself."

"But..." Su Hui was worried, when suddenly she heard a loud roar; Lord Xiong forcefully shattered the mantras on his body, also causing Lin Xi to stagger backwards repeatedly.

Lin Xi staggered back, her face a bit pale, a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, but there wasn’t a hint of discouragement in her eyes, her fighting spirit undiminished, solemnly staring at Lord Xiong.

Lord Xiong, although he broke free from the mantra’s confinement, felt something was amiss and soon felt a churning of blood within him, which was very uncomfortable.

Everyone saw that Lord Xiong’s expression was pained, then realized Lin Xi’s spell-casting was definitely not that simple.

Spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, Lord Xiong knelt on one knee, his eyes filled with terror, "What sort of curse did you put on me just now?"

Lin Xi gave a slight smile, "This is a mantra I developed specifically for monsters like you with incredible healing abilities. The stronger your healing power, the greater the damage—you recover 20%, you’ll receive a certain amount of injury. Simply put, it’s meant to slow down your healing speed, while making you suffer in recovery."

"What, there’s such a mantra?" Xue Wang’s heart sank. Their healing abilities could only mend ordinary damage, but couldn’t dispel the effect of the mantra on their bodies, which could be said to be a ruthless move by Lin Xi.

At this moment, Lord Xiong endured the pain, his eyes filled with a murderous gleam, "Very good, it’s been a long time since anyone surprised me like this, but if you think you can defeat me with this, you’re too naive."

Although Lord Xiong’s recovery ability had slowed considerably, he would always recuperate eventually, whereas Lin Xi’s supernatural power consumption was severe. She already appeared weak, and moreover, she needed to conserve some supernatural power to assist Gu Fan and the others.

At that moment, Xue Wang stepped forward and said indifferently, "Lord Xiong, stay calm and recover at your own pace. I’ll leave this woman, Lin Xi, to you. As for the others," as he spoke, Xue Wang coldly stared at Gu Fan.

Irina knew that the enemy was approaching and immediately ordered her people to enter combat mode, with all weapons at the ready.

"Come on, use up all your bullets on me," Xue Wang said as he walked forward.

The members of the Hunter’s Guild immediately opened fire, discharging all kinds of bullets and wooden arrows in a dense barrage towards Xue Wang.

Xue Wang displayed a disdainful expression. His movements were swift; as he advanced, he dodged everything, and no bullet or wooden arrow touched him.

After a round of shooting, all of the Hunter’s Guild’s bullets and wooden arrows were depleted, yet Xue Wang was still absolutely fine and even expressed his disappointment, "I must say, your ability to run is first-class, or we wouldn’t have chased you for so long. But your resistance, in my eyes, is nothing more than this."

Just as Xue Wang was about to make his move, his subordinates objected, "Hold on, Xue Wang, dealing with these people doesn’t warrant your intervention; let us handle it."

Hearing this, Xue Wang showed a satisfied expression, "Very well, then leave the Hunter’s Guild to you all. But forget about those two; you are no match for them." Here, Xue Wang was naturally referring to Gu Fan and Su Hui, who were skilled in martial arts.

The members of Organization X were exhilarated, each brandishing a knife, with cold smirks on their lips, "Hunter’s Guild, don’t blame us for ganging up on you; blame yourselves for provoking those you shouldn’t have."

Irina snorted, "Less talk, come at us quickly."

"Oh, this beauty is quite impatient. Well, we’ll deal with you first." The members of Organization X shouted excitedly and then charged at the Hunter’s Guild.

The two sides clashed, knives against knives, engaging in fierce close combat, difficult to separate.

Although Organization X had more people, each member of the Hunter’s Guild was skilled in fighting vampires to the death; everyone was exceptional in skill. Particularly, Irina, having learned a few moves from a disciple of Jian Shen, could compensate for their numerical disadvantage with her ability to take on three opponents by herself.

Gu Fan and Su Hui directly faced the formidable enemy, Xue Wang, knowing that this battle was inevitable and harboring no illusions of escape, began to warm up and prepare for a tough fight.

Comparatively, although it was challenging enough for Gu Fan and Su Hui to fight a Mo Yun together, the opponent now was Xue Wang who was ten times stronger than Mo Yun. Theoretically, they had no chance of winning, but practically, with the Destiny Stone Body Guard, Gu Fan had a greater chance of victory.

"Be careful, Gu Fan!" This was Lord Xiong’s warning to Xue Wang, who also recognized that the opponent was quite special and adopted a serious stance.

"Xue Wang, do you remember? In ancient times, I almost died at your hands, yet I still escaped from danger. It seems it was also overcast like today back then," Gu Fan then pointed to the sky, "Do you believe that this time will be like the last, that when I am in most danger, the skies will clear up, driving away all evil spirits, and you will flee, while I again escape from danger?"

Hearing this, Xue Wang’s expression darkened, and he retorted, "If you truly have the Destiny Stone Body Guard, why is it overcast today, allowing us the chance to pursue and kill you?"
